Reporting To Remember : Karnataka Home Minister

Unfortunately, what is happening is that on days like New Years,

Brigade Road, Commercial Street, or MG road, a large number of youngsters gather. And youngsters were almost like westerners. They tried to copy the westerners, not only in their mindset but even in their dressing. So some disturbance, some girls are harassed, these kind of things do happen.

Reporting To Remember , Karnataka Home Minister, G Parameshwara for dismissing, normalising, hence justifying sexual violence. Where there is blame, violence against women is furthered. Blaming youth, west, clothes, women, reveals a lack of taking ownership and responsibility. Instead our home minister says “ these kind of things do happen”. When violence is normalised, it is accepted. This is also the problem.
